	A song with many musical elements... built on a slow blues progression - with choruses interjected between verses.

	Story Behind the Song The Lyrics mirror the musical structure of the song. The blues progressions are paired to the stanzas of an English sonnet. The choruses are mated with a more modern pop lyric. It's an experiment, but many of the parts work well. I am particularly happy with the harder parts toward the end... however green they come off. Lyrics May the Stars Burn Out © MetaVerse 2000 My stars, unseen and unemployed, will die; My sun, confused and jealously looks on The brighter twin ascending to the sky, The love that turns the darkest night to dawn. May the stars burn out May the stars burn out The shadows all are banished from the Earth, And need for shade or shelter's been revoked, And nevermore will glare be said to hurt; My love is all and more than I could hope. May the stars burn out May the stars burn out Like candles in daylight Like moonshine at noontime The stars burn out May the stars burn out She warms the deepest trenches of the sea And thinner air on mountain tops does not Diminish any of the life she feeds To fawn and flora, which without were lost. May the stars burn out May the stars burn out Like candles in daylight Like moonshine at noontime The stars burn out May the stars burn out Burn.. Burn Out.. May they.. Burn out.. And so unlike the other burning stars My love is near and safe to hold to heart
